Our prediction: Chelsea v Liverpool
Chelsea simply need some of their big money signings to step up. Kai Havertz, Christian Pulisic, Timo Werner, Hakim Ziyech have all failed to produce consistent performances, while Lukaku simply needs to deliver now that he's back to fitness.
Liverpool won't be sounding the crisis alarms just yet, but a defeat here would be particularly costly. Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah will soon depart for the Africa Cup of Nations, making this encounter even more important to navigate successfully.
Our prediction: Chelsea 1-2 Liverpool (9/1 at bet365)
